Law is very different from auditing but still a service business.
3 extra years of education cost you what - say $150,000 all in? 3 years of not working cost you what another $170,000 in lost pay. When you make up the $320,000 differential let me know. |

Assuming he's at a V50 Law firm - the differential will be made up in 5-10 years.
Though your points are valid - unless you know you're headed to a biglaw firm the differential of law school usually doesn't justify itself.
